The RAM ProMaster full-size cargo van is known for its versatility, impressive interior storage space and performance. It adopts many of the characteristics we love from the new RAM lineup, and brings us a level of style and efficiency that is unusual for a vehicle of its size.
These are just some of the features that made it stand out as a nominee for the coveted 2014 Motor Trend Truck of the Year award. It was also recognized for its powertrain offerings. Drivers can choose from either the 3.6-liter Pentastar V-6 coupled with a six-speed automatic transmission, or the EcoDiesel 3.0-liter four-cylinder engine paired with an automated six-speed manual transmission. This option is quite new to the U.S. market and gives the RAM ProMaster an impressive fuel-efficiency rating that boosts its miles per gallon to the mid-20's.
The cargo van also comes equipped with technology that makes driving such a large vehicle a breeze. It includes parking sensors, a rearview camera, and a handy three-piece bumper. The benefit being that if damage were to occur to the bumper, only the dented portion would need to be replaced rather than the whole unit. This gives the van a unique aggressive looking front fascia design.
Will these features be enough to push the ProMaster to the top? The winner of the 2014 Truck of the Year will be announced by MotorTrend.com tomorrow, so be sure to continue following our blog to find out the results.
